Love it, Dino, Classic Superman pose, incredible artist, and a real winner all around. In case it’s helpful, I think this reference might have been what Adam had in mind for the coloring on the cover. Great addition to an amazing collection!

Nice, this is the first time I've ever seen Adam add little bits of rendering and feathering on the edges of the larger dark masses. Looks pretty cool! Classic pose, too!

What's not to love about an Adam Hughes cover? You always expect to see Hughes drawing attractive women so this comes as bit of a surprise. But it's about as ideal a pose as you can get with Superman. It's heroic, it's classic, it's iconic. Superb pick-up, congrats!
